I keep reading how groups are trying to keep Christianity and prayer out of all public places? Why are they so worried about it?
What is your opinion on that?

In the USA it is called freedom of religion.

However, sometimes I think it has been taken to an unhealthy extreme. For there should be some type of balance, for ALL RELIGIONS to be allowed to practice their faith, as long as it does not interfere with, the regular public operations that are happening in the public locations.

While there are a lot of groups I disagree with, and openly state my objections to them, I will also be the first to say that those groups have the right to express their views the same as any other. But at the same time I expect the same rights regarding of freedom of speech and religion to be applied to my views.

However, to me, these days it seems to be a bit one sided. It seems that any group, except Christian groups, are allowed to post signs or present their faith’s information in public locations, while it seems a Christian can get in trouble for simply saying “God Bless You” or just “Bless You” after someone sneezes.
